WoolSafe® Accreditation

WoolSafe Approval for Cleaning Products

WoolSafe product accreditation is available world-wide to manufacturers of carpet cleaning chemicals, spot removers, soil and stain resist treatments and other products used to maintain or enhance carpets and rugs.

Manufacturers interested in endorsement can submit their products to The WoolSafe Organisation for testing. Products that meet all the performance requirements are issued with a certificate and suppliers are entitled to display the WoolSafe Mark, and one of a selection of approved phrases, on packaging, product literature and advertising material associated with the product.

All approved products are subject to annual re-evaluation to ensure they continue to meet the WoolSafe requirements, or that changes introduced when products are re-formulated, are not detrimental to the performance of the product.

The high level of interest in improving carpet maintenance products and techniques is demonstrated by the fact that many cleaning agent manufacturers have re-formulated products in order to comply with the WoolSafe requirements, or to enhance their products' efficiency.
